The 17th Annual Artvoice Mardi Gras is just around the corner. This year Mardi Gras will be on February 21st and once again all proceeds of the event will be donated to Give For Greatness. This event will kick off our 2012 Give Season and we are getting very excited about seeing all of Buffalo come out to celebrate Fat Tuesday and support our local arts community. Buffalo hosts the second largest Mardi Gras party behind New Orleans!

As the Buffalo Philharmonic successfully completes its historic milestone of 75 years of music-making, we owe a debt of gratitude to all that came before us…our founders, patrons, musicians and staff. And we would be remiss not to mention our home, Kleinhans Music Hall, an architectural and historical marvel in which we are privileged to perform.

We now turn to 2011-2012 with the spirit, soul and passion that defines your orchestra. Join us for the grandeur, bliss, inspiration and excitement
that the new season promises.
